Introduction

UNDP’s Decentralization, Human Rights and Local Governance Project (DHL) works to strengthen rights-based governance in Pakistan at national and sub-national levels. For this objective, the DHL project engages government entities, National Human Rights Institutions (NHRIs), private sector, civil society, academia, and other key stakeholders to protect, respect, and promote human rights. Furthermore, UNDP-DHL aims to empower local communities, human rights defenders, and vulnerable & marginalized populations to ensure an inclusive and participatory approach to the implementation of human rights laws, policies, and frameworks.

 In 2024, UNDP-DHL will commence a multi-year project supported by the European Union (EU) which will engage a diverse set of public and private institutions, along with civil society stakeholders, to advance human rights across Pakistan. The project will focus on four pillars:

1.  Governmental human rights structures
2. National Human Rights Institutions & civil society participation
3. Human rights education
4. Business and human rights (BHR)

Under the fourth pillar (BHR), UNDP-DHL has since 2018 supported the advancement of the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs) in Pakistan, with the aim of ensuring human rights and gender equality across all forms of business activity. This includes technical assistance to the Government of Pakistan, led by the Ministry of Human Rights (MoHR), for the development and implementation of the National Action Plan on Business and Human Rights (NAP-BHR). UNDP-DHL also engages government entities, regulators, and the private sector for the uptake of human rights due diligence (HRDD) as a key best practice to respect human rights across Pakistani value chains. Finally, the project supports NHRIs, civil society, workers, and human rights defenders to increase access to remedy for rights-holders and promote accountability when business activity leads to human rights violations.

The scope of work is further detailed in Section 5 of this RFP.
